TROY TO GUN FOR ROSES SATURDAY
By DICK CALHOUN Daily Trojan Sports Editor
The Troian forces are preparing an assault for the “big game” with the UCLA Bruins, that looms as the only block on the road to Pasadena and the Rose Bowl.
The Bruins’ 17-14 loss to the Washington Huskies, that settles their conference record at two wins and one loss, leaves USC atop conference ratings with a 2-0-1 mark and in the event of a tie Troy could get the nod.
Not only does national and local prestige hang precariously on the outcome of Saturday’s battle,
but the possession of the Victory Bell — currently housed at USC — is at stake.
And the final gun will sound a profound meaning for Head Coach John McKay, too, for if the Trojans pull this one from the grasp of the Bruins McKay will have piloted USC through a winning season, to the Big Five championship, and to the largest and most spectacular bowl game in the nation.
Both the Trojans and Bruins fell before their opponents in their last encounter but for once, the injury hex forsook Troy for Westwood.
Even though the Trojans lost to Pittsburgh, Coach McKay accomplished something — no seri-
ous injuries befell Troy.
The Bruins were dragged through the wringer by the hard-nosed Washington Huskies and UCLA Coach Bill Barnes said the Bruins are weakened because of it.
The Bruin backfield has contributed most to the infirmary, with star wingback Kermit Alexander and Carmen DiPoalo out, tailback Rob Smith incapacitated and blocking backs Bob Stevens and John LoCurto sidelined.
In the UCLA line, right end Tom Gutman probably will not be recuperated and left tackle Steve Bauwens is still a question mark.
In the Trojan camp tackle Frank Buncom,
one of USC’s outstanding linemen this season, was bothered by muscle cramps at Pittsburgh but should be recovered by Saturday.
Troy's first string guards Chuck Anderson and team captain Britt Williams, center Skip Johnscn and backs Ken Del Conte and Alan Shields all sat out the clash with the Panthers but Saturday should find them in the lineup. The conditions of first team right end Ben Rosin and left tackle Mike Gale are still questionable.
The Trojans will probably stick with the same backfield as last week — with Jim Maples and Loran Hunt at the halfback spots and Ben Wilson at fullback. (Continued on Page 6)

PRE-GAME GRID RALLY MOVES INTO BOVARD
Location of the student rally preceding the USC-UCLA game has been changed to Bovard Auditorium at neon tomorrow, Rally Committee co-Chairman Julie Sullivan announced yesterday.
The rally was previously scheduled for the steps of Doheny Library.
The traditional rally will feature yell leader Rich Miailovich and the yell souad, the ^roian band and the men’s and women’s Glee Clubs.
Coach John McKay and the football team will also be on hand to promote spirit fcr the annual crosstown clash Saturday.
“This is the only rally Coach McKay will speak at,” Miss Sullivan said. He will introduce the senior members of the souad, ^o will be playing their last ^ame as Troians.
The USC-UCLA clash takes on added significance this year because the winner of the geme will get the Rose Bowl bid. Miss Sullivan said. Even if the same were to be a tie. it is more than likely the Trojans would represent the Big Five in the New Year’s Day pageant.
But if USC were to lose the game, it would not only lose the conference title and possession of the USC-UCLA victory bell, but would also wind up with a losing season.
“The entire football team will be at the rally tomorrow to show us they want to win the game, and we should be there to show them we want to beat UCLA and go to the Rose Bowl,” Miss Sullivan said.
The traditional victory bell, which is awarded to the winner of the annual game and is now in USC’s possession will be brought to the rally by the Knights.
“Painted cardinal and gold, it will be on hand to commemorate our victory last year and to inspire us to win again,” Miss Sullivan said.

Reorganization of the ASSC administrative arm will be plotted by the Executive Cabinet tonight at 7 in the Senate Chambers, 301 SU.
ASSC President Hugh Helm said the prcgram he plans to present to the cabinet includes abolition of the six department heads in the administrative arm, elimination and consolidation of several administrative committees and increasing the supervisory capacities of the administrative assistants.
Committees mentioned for possible elimination or consolidation were the Alumni-Par-ents Committee in the depart-/ ment cf public relations; the Student Speakers Committee, also in the public relations department; and the Special Events Committee in the department of student activities.
New Proposal Helm said the reorganization proposal resulted from his personal experience of working in student government during the past year and a half.
“One of my campaign promises was to study the administrative arm to find ways to ! make the system more effective and efficient,” Helm said. “This proposal is part of my plan to tie together the loose ends and tentacles we have found to exist within our ASSC structure.”
The administrative arm was the first major act passed under the current ASSC Constitution in 1959. Authored by former ASSC President Bill Steigerwalt, the arm groups student activities into 20 administrative committaes supervised by 6 department heads.
Committee Heads “We have found that the system of committee heads doesn’t work in practice,” Helm claimed. “It is impossible for the ASSC President to supervise directly all these committees. These changes will give the president’s administrative assistant, who at this time has no specific duties, the job of supervising these committees.”
Helm said the administrative assistant would act as liason between the committees and the Senate and cabinet in order to improve understanding of the committees’ needs.
Proposals resulting from this evening’s meetings will be sent to the Senate as suggestions for future legislation, Helm said.

Excavation Relics Link Jewish Past
By ARLINE KAPLAN
Letters of Bar Kochba, an ancient prince of Israel, which were hidden in 135 AD and uncovered in 1960, have helped men of today learn of an obscure Jewish people and the history of the Holy Land, an archeology professor explained Sunday afternoon.
Dr. Yigael Yadin, professor of archeology at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem told an audience of 500 jammed into 229 FH how he and other experts aided by Israeli soldiers excavated caves in the Judean desert once inhabdtated by Judean refugees and found documents, coins, clothing, household items and skeletons.
“The refugees had fled to caves after Reman Emperor Hadrian’s forces crushed a three-and-a-half year revolt led

by Israeli Prince Bar Kochba,” Dr. Yadin said.
The Bedouins already had found several documents and articles. Thinking that there might be other findings to be located, Dr. Yadin wrent on one of four expeditions sent to the Dead Sea area.
Several Days
After several days, he reported, the expedition found an opening to a cave not far from the remains of a Roman camp. Gaining entrance to the cave by a rope ladder, the men spent several days searching the cavities of the cave.
In the innermost part of the cave they found a secondary burial ground strewn with the skeletons cf 22 men and women. Still preserved in the dry climate were tunics worn by the people, Dr. Yadin related.
Using a mine detector, the group discovered a basket containing metal vessels. The find was one of the finest hauls of bronze metals in the w'orld, he said.
“This defacement was more proof that the people in the caves were Jews. In Jewish tradition, if the Roman images. w7ere defaced the people had a right to reuse the vessels.” Papyrus Paper
Among the other articles found, was a woman’s basket containing skeins of wool, a mirror made from a brass di.se attached to a paddle board and a packet of letters, Dr. Yadin noted.
“The letters were written on papyrus and tied with string,” he said. “Among the letters were slates of wood inscribed in Hebrew and Aramaic written by Prince Bar Kochba.”
In March of this year, the expedition returned to the desert. On this Expedition, they found a woman’s jewelry box, a mirror, wooden bowls, cutlery fashioned from iron and bronze and sandals which look
Three choruses from Mendelssohn’s "Hymn of Praise” will be featured today at noon at the university’s first Thanksgiving Convocation to be held in Bovard Auditorium.
“All Ye That Cried Unto the Lord,” “Let All Men Praise the Lord” and “Ye Nations, Offer to the Lord Glory” will be sung by the University Concert Choir directed by Dr. James Vail.
Chaplain John E. Cantelon and Bob Jani, coordinator of special events, are co-spcnsor-ing the convocation, which is the first of three planned all-university gatherings. They will also include Christmas and Easter presentations.
Thanksgiving Message
Included in the program will be the Invocation and a Thanksgiving message by Chaplain Cantelon. The message, titled “Giving Thanks in All Things,” will touch on the background of Thanksgiving.
“The talk will cover the contrasts between the Pilgrim’s celebration when food was scarce and our celebration today when everything is abundant,” he said.
“I will also discuss the Pilgrim character in our national growth, and how it has shaped our culture.”
Scripture Readings
A prayer by Dr. J. Wesley Robb, head of the undergraduate department of religion, and a reading from the scriptures by Genta Hawkins, president of the Student Council on Religion, are also scheduled for presentation today.
Chaplain Cantelon inaugurated the special convocations this year as part of a program to make his department's activities more interesting.
Earlier in the year, he changed the Sunday morning services in Bovard to the “simpler” University Vespers at 4:30 p.m. every Sunday in Hancock.
“With the money available from this switch we will not only be able to have these convocations but periodically we will have outstanding personalities from fields such as religion, law and drama spend the day speaking on campus,” he reported.
SAE to Hold Turkey Feast For Students
A dozen foreign students have been invited to a pre-Thanksgiving dinner at Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity tonight.
The foreign students will be given a tour of the fraternity, an explanation of the American fraternity system and a breakdown of fraternity expenses. The members will show the international students how a rush dinner is conducted and what the rushee should look for and expect from a fraternity.
Seven nations will be represented at the dinner. Students from Egypt, Germany. India,
Morrocco, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and the Congo have received invitations.
Fraternity System
ASSC Foreign Students Committee Chairman Thomas Bergendahl has assisted the fraternity in contacting the foreign students. He said the dinner would be a good way to introduce the international students to fraternities since most of their home countries do not have any comparable system.

The Bedouins already had found several documents and articles. Thinking that there might be other findings to be located, Dr. Yadin wrent on one of four expeditions sent to the Dead Sea area. Several Days After several days, he reported, the expedition found an opening to a cave not far from the remains of a Roman camp. Gaining entrance to the cave by a rope ladder, the men spent several days searching the cavities of the cave. In the innermost part of the cave they found a secondary burial ground strewn with the skeletons cf 22 men and women. Still preserved in the dry climate were tunics worn by the people, Dr. Yadin related. Using a mine detector, the group discovered a basket containing metal vessels. The find was one of the finest hauls of bronze metals in the w'orld, he said. “This defacement was more proof that the people in the caves were Jews. In Jewish tradition, if the Roman images. w7ere defaced the people had a right to reuse the vessels.” Papyrus Paper Among the other articles found, was a woman’s basket containing skeins of wool, a mirror made from a brass di.se attached to a paddle board and a packet of letters, Dr. Yadin noted. “The letters were written on papyrus and tied with string,” he said. “Among the letters were slates of wood inscribed in Hebrew and Aramaic written by Prince Bar Kochba.” In March of this year, the expedition returned to the desert. On this Expedition, they found a woman’s jewelry box, a mirror, wooden bowls, cutlery fashioned from iron and bronze and sandals which look Three choruses from Mendelssohn’s "Hymn of Praise” will be featured today at noon at the university’s first Thanksgiving Convocation to be held in Bovard Auditorium. “All Ye That Cried Unto the Lord,” “Let All Men Praise the Lord” and “Ye Nations, Offer to the Lord Glory” will be sung by the University Concert Choir directed by Dr. James Vail. Chaplain John E. Cantelon and Bob Jani, coordinator of special events, are co-spcnsor-ing the convocation, which is the first of three planned all-university gatherings. They will also include Christmas and Easter presentations. Thanksgiving Message Included in the program will be the Invocation and a Thanksgiving message by Chaplain Cantelon. The message, titled “Giving Thanks in All Things,” will touch on the background of Thanksgiving. “The talk will cover the contrasts between the Pilgrim’s celebration when food was scarce and our celebration today when everything is abundant,” he said. “I will also discuss the Pilgrim character in our national growth, and how it has shaped our culture.” Scripture Readings A prayer by Dr. J. Wesley Robb, head of the undergraduate department of religion, and a reading from the scriptures by Genta Hawkins, president of the Student Council on Religion, are also scheduled for presentation today. Chaplain Cantelon inaugurated the special convocations this year as part of a program to make his department's activities more interesting. Earlier in the year, he changed the Sunday morning services in Bovard to the “simpler” University Vespers at 4:30 p.m. every Sunday in Hancock. “With the money available from this switch we will not only be able to have these convocations but periodically we will have outstanding personalities from fields such as religion, law and drama spend the day speaking on campus,” he reported. SAE to Hold Turkey Feast For Students A dozen foreign students have been invited to a pre-Thanksgiving dinner at Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity tonight. The foreign students will be given a tour of the fraternity, an explanation of the American fraternity system and a breakdown of fraternity expenses. The members will show the international students how a rush dinner is conducted and what the rushee should look for and expect from a fraternity. Seven nations will be represented at the dinner. Students from Egypt, Germany. India, Morrocco, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and the Congo have received invitations. Fraternity System ASSC Foreign Students Committee Chairman Thomas Bergendahl has assisted the fraternity in contacting the foreign students. He said the dinner would be a good way to introduce the international students to fraternities since most of their home countries do not have any comparable system. SAE President Jerry Facht said the idea for the Thanksgiving dinner grew out of a complaint from several members that they did not know1 Officers for the Engineering any foreign students, and that ; Alumni Association were eiec-thev thought the fraternity ted at the School of Engineer-system would be something! ing's annual Homecoming ban-the visitors would be interest- quet last week, ed in learning more about.
